6. I know. You just have to "be there" to catch them.
I caught Bill O'Reilly and Alberto Gonzales this afternoon. LOL.

3. I've often thought they should be left...
In context, but marked with a tombstone signature. It's hard to follow half of the comments.

I agree a hate forum or graveyard forum would be kinda fun.

4. But then they wouldn't be deleted
They would just be moved, so would you call it a "Moved Threads"

7. That might be a good idea and here's why
Some of my friends and myself have discovered an 'echo chamber' in Yahoo Groups. There is a group of RW'ers trolling on Anti-Bush groups saying the same thing on multiple groups over and over again.

Perhaps doing this can lead to a possible way to counterattack what we see at the Yahoo Groups as a growing menace.

8. Me too...
I would like to know what some of those posts said.

Every time a thread gets all fired up I see a whole bunch of them.

I can understand why certain posts would get removed from the thread, but yeah, they should put 'em somewhere.

Heyo

11. I was thinking that the other day too!
Or it can be similar to the occasional "Hate Mail Grabbag" feature that DU does.

It could be called "FReepers Run Amok" and list the post, citing which thread it was from. Skinner or whomever can add little DU responses to each one for levity!
